Top Glacial Grooves State Monument Hotel Reviews

Kelleys Island Venture Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Thus place used to be so perfectly maintained. The outside was full of webs and dried up bugs and dirty outside. The floors on the inside needs cleaned. It was such a beautiful place. Hopefully they will hire people to clean it up."

Modern A-Frame + Backyard + Firepit + BBQ

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at this property! The open layout was spacious, and the first-floor main bedroom with walkout patio doors was convenient. The loft upstairs made a perfect hangout spot with its TV area and two beds. The location is great for nature lovers; we easily walked to East Quarry, North Pond, and Scheele Preserve, and the famous Glacial Grooves are just a short golf cart ride away. Just a heads-up for pet owners: the indoor floors were slick for our dogs. If your dogs have problems with slipping, you might want to bring a few rugs. The property feels very private, with just one house close by on the left, while the right side is a wooded tree lot. We rented a golf cart to travel downtown and explore the rest of the island, but the property itself is wonderfully quiet. It felt very relaxing at night sitting around the fire pit, completely away from all the downtown noise. Highly recommended!"

Glacier Suite at Kelley's Island Venture Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Love the location and pool hot tub! We have been coming for several years. Staff was super helpful and friendly as always. The grounds and bugs on the exterior near the lights could have used some attention. It did not stop us from having a wonderful time."

Vineyard Suite at Kelley's Island Venture Resort

8/10 Good

"Room was good plenty of room carpet had some large stains but everything else was clean. The only real issue was the pool and hot tub. Poorly maintained not very clean none of the pumps were running in the pool or the hot tub water was low in the hot tub below the skimmer. Probably would have been pretty good if someone was carrying for them."
